Default Can this structure be beaten on a consistant basis?

Ok, there is a card room in town that runs 2 tournaments a day on Sat. and Sun. But I'm not quite sure if the structure renders it too much of a crap shoot to be worth going into it regularly with a profit motive. Here are the details:

Buy-in, $60 gets you t4000, rake 25% of buyin
Dealer Add-on $10 gets you t1000, rake 50% of add-on

Average # of entries 35-40,
Payouts approx. 1st: 680
2nd: 450
3rd: 275
4th: 190
5th: 120
6th: (unofficial bubble fund $50)

These are Charity games, so you have about a 50-50 shot that your dealer will be competent. Perhaps 8-12 hands per round before the first break, 6-10 hands per round after first break.

Additionally, these tournaments count towards a league, so a good 30%-40% of the players are just trying to make the FT for a good point score. Other than that, figure they are your general cross-section of live recreational tourney players.

20 minute rounds as follows

25-50
50-50
50-100
75-150
100-200
150-300
break
200-400
300-600
400-800
500-1000
600-1200
700-1500
break
1000-2000
1500-3000
3000-6000, ante 500
5000-10000, ante 1000
7500-15000, ante 1000
and thats usually as far as it goes.
